What a shame to our education system and the thievery politicians around?

Betty, what's wrong with praising our own? Isn't it better to offer praise when it's due than insulting and pull one another down?

Betty, what's wrong with praising our own? Isn't it better to offer praise when it's due than insulting and pull one another down?

It's ok to praise, and to also open our eyes and ears and respond to important issues that affect our people now and will affect posterity. Issues like Multinational Corps (MNCs), Chinese, and Arabs land grab in Ghana and Africa in general, corruption etc, are some of the issues that we must all be vigilant about and let our voices be heard.

Yes, the guy has done well to acquire his knowledge. Is anybody questioning how he acquired the talent and the qualifications? Nobody, nobody, because his name is not Karim, Yakubu,
Aminu, Issah, Aliu, Alhaji, etc. etc. That is Ghanaian local and internal racism - it is there!

Anyway, is this guy as rich as Bill Gates? How does disseminate his knowledge? Does he know that with people like him in Ghana, Ghanaians should benefit from him and Ghana should start thinking of exporting the expertise?

The praise singers of this guy have not mentioned how others are benefiting from his knowledge. We don't want the type of "Kokofu" knowledge.

Isn't it amazing to see Ghanaians excel at all levels? Congratulations to Herman. I hope young people will be inspired by your success and that you will challenge and enthuse them to do so.
